Frequently asked questions
Minimalist clothing
What is minimalist clothing?
It uses clean, versatile design intended for repeated use. At OLC, it includes comfortable garments for city life, travel and nearby nature.
Does minimalist clothing have to be black or white?
No. Gray, earth tones, greens and understated blues can also form an easy-to-combine minimalist palette.
How do I start a minimalist wardrobe?
Begin with your routine, choose a short color palette and prioritize T-shirts, layers and hoodies that work together.
Does minimalist mean clothing without personality?
No. Identity can come from silhouette, texture, color and detail without relying on visual excess.
Outdoor clothing and technical materials
What does Urban Outdoor clothing mean?
It combines urban comfort with practical use for travel, walks and changing weather without presenting itself as extreme technical equipment.
What should I wear for changing weather in Colombia?
A layer system lets you adjust warmth and ventilation: a base T-shirt, a midlayer and outer protection suited to the forecast.
Is quick-dry apparel useful for training and travel?
It can be useful for movement and light packing. Check the fabric, fit and actual care instructions published for each style.
Does a windbreaker replace a waterproof jacket?
Not necessarily. Protection depends on material and construction; check the product page and use suitable outerwear when heavy rain is expected.
Hoodies, T-shirts and neck gaiters
Are hoodie, sweatshirt and regional terms such as buzo the same?
Usage varies by region. At OLC, hoodie identifies a hooded outer layer with either pullover or zip construction.
What is the difference between a hoodie and a crewneck?
A hoodie has a hood; a crewneck does not and often works as a lighter long-sleeve layer.
Should I choose an oversized or regular-fit T-shirt?
Oversized styles create a wider silhouette; regular fits sit closer to the body. Compare width, length and drape.
What is a neck gaiter and what is it used for?
It is a multifunctional tubular accessory worn around the neck or head during travel, motorcycle rides, walks and outdoor activities.
Customization and B2B orders
Does OLC customize apparel for businesses and teams?
Yes. OLC reviews projects for companies, brands, teams and events using garment, quantity, artwork, intended use and target date.
What is the minimum order for custom apparel?
Retail and B2B flows differ. B2B orders normally start at 12 units, but OLC confirms the minimum for each garment, technique and scope.
Which customization techniques does OLC offer?
Embroidery, DTF, screen printing or sublimation may be evaluated according to garment, artwork, quantity and intended use.
What should I send to receive a quote?
Share approximate quantity, garment type, sizes, colors, available artwork, delivery city and target date.
Purchasing, sizing, shipping and care
Can I buy one OLC garment?
Yes. Active retail products are sold by the unit according to the price and inventory published in the shop.
How do I choose the right size?
Compare the garment measurements with an item that already fits and use the size guide instead of relying only on the size letter.
Does OLC ship throughout Colombia?
Yes. OLC manages domestic shipping; review the current policy and confirm logistics for custom orders.
How should I care for a customized garment?
Follow the label, wash decorated garments inside out, avoid extreme heat and do not iron directly over the application.
